The owner of a Hollywood restaurant is being hailed as a hero after security footage captured him chasing down a robber and restraining him until help arrives.

As the robber begins to walk away, Tim Ratcliff, who owns the neighboring business Hollywood Shin, immediately begins pursuing him, and the chase doesn’t last long.

My first thought was that the lady was going to run with the wallet. A feel good all around.

Good work. The Restaurant Owner must have one of those
Peloton Bikes in his Condo. Whatever helps you stay in condition. I think they stopped making that other kind of exercise bike, the one that late Harry Reid owned.

Not sure. DA Gascon is in a recall this Nov. so he may have to prosecute. Anyone sucker punching a 70 year old needs to get years in prison.

Apparently the owner is an athletic 6’3” and 250lbs. Still taking a risk here but good on him. I may have to dine at his restaurant.

The assailant was a white homeless punk. The restaurant owner could have executed him with a bullet to the back of the head. I doubt local DA would have got involved for that.

Democrats and their secret police thugs support criminals, illegals crossing our borders and other assorted evil lowlifes... the people who are ‘above the law’.

This thug will be back on the street by tomorrow.

Don’t mess with indie pizza shop owners, they are a tough breed. I like how the cute scantly clad woman ran outside and helped out. She was probably eating inside.

The little s#!t was probably squealing “let me go, let me go” like in most of the others like this I’ve seen

Unfortunately this is Los Angeles we’re talking about. The DA here is a commie and if it wasn’t for the recall on him going on atm he most likely would prosecute.

That asian babe in shorts kicked him several times in the legs and stood on his legs and kicked him in the head as well.
I noticed many men standing around and just watching....

Also noticed how easily the police officers were able to handcuff the guy while he had earlier struggled against the 250lb guy.
